Meanwhile, the Washington Post’s Dana Milbank opines about the valiant fight so many are shouldering in an effort to save our democracy and how thankful we should be to those who defend us everyday. These pieces reflect the dire situation the US is in today; and while I am thankful that there is resistance, I live with the hope I can say the same next year.
